The Merseyside outfit and Salah travel to the Czech Republic on Wednesday ahead of Thursday’s clash.

Liverpool squad

Liverpool travelling squad: Gomez, Endo, Van Dijk, Konate, Diaz, Szoboszlai, Nunez, Mac Allister, Salah, Adrian, Gakpo, Elliott, Tsimikas, Robertson, Clark, Gordon, McConnell, Kelleher, Koumas, Quansah, Bradley, Musialowski, Mrozek.

On Friday, Klopp said: “I don’t think Mo’s too far off, but he will not reach tomorrow, and from there we have to go. Like with the other two (Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szoboszlai), touch and go and that stays with Mo, unfortunately, a bit longer. I think next week, at any point, it’s possible [he returns]. He’s on the way back definitely, but not there yet.”

Salah has returned to full training, however, it remains to be seen if will play from the start against Sparta Prague. Liverpool take on fellow title challengers Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday and therefore Klopp could rest the Egyptian forward in Europe.
